Tho Supreme Court has taken . wback
at the Hamilton case and there is very
little of il left. Eubanks is out on one
thousand dollars bail, and one judge de-
clares Hamilton ought to be out, while the
other two as good as admit that there is no
accessory business to the case, and this
means there Is no case at all.
This, after long and careful examine
ton and study Of the evidence, is about all
the endorsement this journal wants on the
particular matter. The judges believe thai
there may be conscientious difference o.
opinion about the case, and they, like othel
people. are unable to say for oertsin whs'
a Jury will decide. There is however, mo-
the shadow Of ground to believe that theJ
think there is no reasonable doubt that's
jury will convict. =

TWENTY-FIVE NEGROES

While Two White Men are Re.

Special to N. c. sta,,s,l
THIBoDAUx, La, Nov. 23.-The labor
troubles here eliminated this morning
in one of the most bloody battles in the
history of the State. The result so far is
twenty-five dead negroes and two white
men wounded, whether fatally or not is
aot yet known. The casualties SO far
are sufficiently numerous, but there is a
feeling among the best citizens that the
worst is over, and that the passions
aroused by the utterances OF the New
Orleans communists, the so-called friends
of labor. have been stilled, and no NOR
blood will be shed or more lives lost.
The feeling against these New Orleans
Communists is very strong, and on every
side their conduct is denounced in tht
most unmeasured terms.
The facts leading to the sacrifice OF lift
| this morning are as follows: Att O'Clock
| the colored strikers in body started t'''
| wards the pickets, which had been stf
,ioned here to protect property, and th'
negroes opened fire upon the white pick
cts. The white men then, to save thei
own lives and prevent the slaughter o
innocent people, at once fred upon th'
rioters, and killed twenty-five negroes.
While the New Orleans Communis'
who are morally responsible for this sac
rifce Of life, are denounced on ever,
,ide, nothing but praise is heard for tL'
conduct of the gallant pickets Thei
prompt act saved the town, and un
doubtedly also saved the lives of hun
dreds of innocent women and children
| 1t was moment fraught with great dan
ger to the citizens, and had the picket
Ihesitated to do their duty, it is certai
THAT the list of killed would have run u
Into the hundreds, instead of the scores
